    Which LCDs can be dismantled?

    Here is my situation. I have an '03 Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition that is begging for a carputer. The opening in the dash is a 1.5 din, roughly 3 3/4" high by 7 1/4" long. Below the radio is a piece of plastic. I believe that this could easily be cut out which would give me a height of 4 3/4". I would rather not hack the dash but I'll do whatever needs to be done.

    My question is this. What LCDs are easily to disassemble and remove from their plastic bezels? I would much rather just mount the LCD and not the entire pastic shroud that comes with it.

    Thanks,

    Chris

    They can all be disassembled. I don't think any of them are EASY because of the sensitivity of conenctions and the like.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?



    Under normal circumstances, a signature would go here.

    If you want them dismantled, a sled hammer will do it.

    Yes, they all can be disassembled, but they have to be handle gentle and with care, not sled hammer.
    Just take snapshot of all connectors, screws, before/after you unscrew, unplug them in case your forgot which one goes where.
